getInput

T getInput()
           throws IOException

Returns an object that encapsulates a readable resource.

Like Iterable.iterator(), this method may be called repeatedly to get independent channels to the same underlying resource.

Where the channel maintains a position within the resource, moving that cursor within one channel should not affect the starting position of channels returned by other calls.

Throws:

IOException
